WISHFUL THINKING

Original concept cover So this is something I've been writing for a while. A long while, actually....it's dystopian fantasy and I love it a lot. I've never put it on the blog because I'm waiting to finish the series entirely before I find a publisher for it. This will be the IT book - the one I'll really really seek to get published because I love it so much. Only there are like a million different threads all tangling around in this book, so I may actually be set back by a few years before I'm fully satisfied with it.

Anyway now I have something infinitely cool and strange and everything else I usually love about dystopian fiction. I even have names for the three books that will be in this series (unless I change my mind and add a few more, sigh) and those are ARGENTUM, INTERIM, and MORTEM...for now, at least. I'm already in the sixth image for the stories (I think I should be an illustrator, really)...
